بِأَيْدِيهِمْin their hands

Example sentences

• وَهَذَا الَّذِي فِي هَذِهِ التَّوْرَاةِ الَّتِي بِأَيْدِيهِمْ غَلَطٌ مِنْهُمْ،

  And what is in this Torah that is in their hands is an error from them.

  بِأَيْدِيهِمْ — in their hands. The relator 'bi-' fused to a noun 'hands' plus '-hum' = 'their', forming 'in their hands' = in their possession. The relator governs the noun into the genitive, and the suffix names the owners; the idiom means the People of the Book currently hold it.
